If you're a fan of fast and effective workouts (and who isn't?) you're in luck; The New York Times recently released a new seven-minute high-intensity interval workout that will help whittle your waistline in under 10 minutes flat.
Like the original seven-minute interval workout created by the American College of Sports Medicine, this advanced version will raise your heart rate and burn major calories thanks to 30- to 60-second intervals of intensity, followed by 10 seconds of rest. These intense bursts - done at an intensity level of eight on a scale of one to 10 - have been proven to help improve heart and overall health as well as boost your metabolism for a better fat burn. The new workout requires a set of dumbbells and is slightly more advanced than the original ACSM version (yes, there are burpees and deadlifts involved), but focus on doing the moves correctly during each interval and you'll be able to scale up once you become more fit. Even better news? You don't even have to worry about counting down or memorizing the workout; the site's timed web-based app means you can pull up either the basic or advanced seven-minute workout on your phone or laptop and follow along hands-free.
Adding this short session to your day will improve your health and fitness level, but it's important to vary your routine so you continue to see results. Mix up your regimen and start feeling stronger, slimmer, and healthier in no time with our intense video workouts that are just as quick and effective. Just press play and follow along to a 10-minute video of your choice.
